Ask HN: Would you buy a Pomodoro/personal timer that connects to your PC/device?

1 pointsby ohfunkyeahover 7 years ago
Hello HN,<p>I am a fan and practitioner of interval work &#x2F; the Pomodoro technique. I have used various programs and physical timers that help with this, but I have never seen the two work together. I&#x27;m thinking about building a timer that can connect to your computer and&#x2F;or phone but wanted to see if others think this would be useful. Would you consider buying such a thing? If so what features would you want?

No. I&#x27;ve a small computer in my hand which is highly programable and very likely there are several apps in the store for such functionality. Having to carry a special hardware doesn&#x27;t sound enticing.
